Stop the Revolution is the fascinating story surrounding the British effort to bring the American Revolution to a peaceful end. It details the fateful September 11, 1776, meeting on Staten Island between British Admiral Lord Richard Howe and Benjamin Franklin, John Adams, and Edward Rutledge. Stop the Revolution provides a compelling glimpse into politics, military diplomacy, and American character at the dawn of independence. This book covers early America from the eyewitness viewpoints of a feisty English traveler, a distressed Lutheran pastor, a precocious young lady, two sympathetic British officers, and an assortment of eccentric Founding Fathers
Thomas McGuire teaches American history at Malvern Preparatory School near Paoli, Pennsylvania, and is the author of Battle of Paoli and Stop the Revolution.
